Fire crews pulled three minors from a burning home in uptown Harrisburg Friday night, and at least one suffered severe burns, police said.
The victims were rushed to a local hospital, and one was flown to an undisclosed burn unit, said Harrisburg police Capt. Gabriel Olivera.
The blaze was reported in a row home in the 2500 block of Lexington Street at about 7:45 p.m. Responding crews found the home engulfed in flames and learned that three youths were inside, Olivera said. Some people at the scene had to be restrained to keep them from rushing into the burning home to try to save the victims.
